Chapter 307 Going to the Hospital
Five people were squeezed into the car, which originally had only four empty seats.
Fortunately, there is no overloading check these days, otherwise people like them would be stopped by traffic police on the roadside as soon as they drove out.
Director Liu sat in the passenger seat, and the old lady, Su Xiaoxiao, Xiao Chen, and Zhao Fumin squeezed into the back seat where three people were supposed to sit.
Fortunately, several of them were of slim build and could barely fit in.
Zhao Fumin was sandwiched between three female comrades and felt very uncomfortable.
But there was no way, he couldn't let Director Liu sit in the back.
A group of people rushed to the hospital in a mighty manner.
According to the neighbor that the old lady informed, the little boy was found lying on the bed in the ward.
The little boy looked about five or six years old. He had an IV in his arm and was sobbing and crying.
There was a woman squatting beside the bed with her back to them, trying hard to hold the little boy's arm where the IV needle was inserted.
"Let me go! I don't want the injection! I want to find my grandma and tell her you bullied me so she can beat you to death!"
The little boy was white and chubby. He kept kicking with his free hand and feet, and used his hands and feet to hit the woman in the face.
The woman held tightly onto his IV arm and remained silent.
Seeing this scene, the old lady rushed forward and slapped the woman in the face with her hand.
"You're a useless piece of shit. You can't even take care of a child. Our family must be incredibly unlucky to have you as our wife."
The woman was beaten but she said nothing, and just kept holding the child's arm silently.
The boy saw his grandmother coming back and a look of pride appeared on his face. "Grandma, please kill her immediately. She bullied me when you were not around. She let those people give me injections and even grabbed my hand to prevent me from moving. The back of my hand is bleeding and it hurts so much."
"Oh, my dear, look at the back of your hand. It's all blue. How could this nurse do her job? She pricked my baby like this."
After saying that, he glared at the woman next to him fiercely: "Are you a dead person? Are those two eyeballs just for decoration? Can't you see that my precious grandson has been stabbed like this? Don't you know how to say a word?"
He angrily scolded the woman, then he remembered the people behind him.
He turned to look at Director Liu and said, "Look, not only my granddaughter, but my grandson is also sick because of the snacks you bought. What do you think we should do about this?"
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Xiao Chen spoke up first: "Auntie, we are not to blame for what happened to your grandchildren. The shelf life of those snacks is only three to five days. You left them out for half a month before giving them to the children. It would be strange if they didn't get sick."
"I'm talking to your leader, why are you, a little girl, butting in?"
The old lady glared at her and turned to Director Liu beside her: "Anyway, I bought this snack from your department store. Besides, no one told me when I bought it that it could only be kept for two days. Anyway, this is your responsibility, you must be held accountable."
"Besides, when I was a kid, this snack was still edible even after being stored for a year or two. Why can't we eat it now? It's obvious that there's something wrong with your snack."
The old lady is really unreasonable.
He is determined to blackmail them.
"Anyway, if you don't take care of this matter today, I'll hang myself in front of your department store tomorrow!"
This was also the first time that Director Liu encountered such an unreasonable person. If it was a man, they could have just taken action directly, but the other party was an elderly man, and tough measures were really inappropriate.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao beside him for help, and Zhao Fumin and Xiao Chen also looked over there.
Comrade Su has a lot of ideas, maybe he has a way to deal with this old lady.
Suddenly meeting three pairs of gazes, Su Xiaoxiao was a little confused. No, why were they all looking at her? Was there something on her face?
Director Liu cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Su, go and talk to the old man in detail."
At this point, he deliberately lowered his voice again: "Money can be given, but it cannot be in the name of compensation, and the maximum is one hundred."
With the current consumption level, one hundred yuan can probably afford to stay in the hospital for half a month.
At most, these two children suffered from food poisoning and were discharged from the hospital on the same day after receiving intravenous drips.
Facing Director Liu's trusting and expectant gaze, Su Xiaoxiao was about to say no, but ultimately did not say it out loud.
Forget it, she is familiar with dealing with vicious old ladies anyway.
When it comes to being unreasonable, who can be as bad as her grandmother Wang Chunhua?
She stepped forward with a smile on her face: "Auntie..."
Just as he started, the old lady interrupted him with a cold face: "What's the point of a little girl like you coming up here? Let your leader come over and talk to me in person."
"Okay, since we can't talk about it, let's just report it to the police."
Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands and continued, "Everyone knows that the shelf life of Changbai cake is generally only a few days. If it is too long, it will easily deteriorate. Let the police investigate thoroughly. If there is no problem with the Changbai cake when your grandson and granddaughter eat it, then we will acknowledge the matter and compensate you according to your request.
At this point, she changed the subject: "But if the investigation reveals that the cakes were already problematic when you gave them to your child, and you knowingly gave them to your child, then your actions constitute deception and blackmail. I think these two offenses combined are enough for the police to arrest you and have you brought to the police station for a talk."
When the old lady heard about calling the police, she was momentarily panicked, but then she quickly realized what was the point of calling the police? Those snacks had already been eaten by that little loser, so how could they possibly find any evidence?
Thinking of this, she said fearlessly: "Okay, then go report to the police, I'll wait."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xiaoxiao said to Director Liu next to him, "Director, do you know anyone in this hospital? Generally speaking, it takes about twelve to twenty-four hours for food to be completely digested and absorbed. The child was just sent to the hospital, so there should be some residue in his stomach. If we ask a doctor to extract and test it, we can know if there is any problem with the food he ate."
After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she winked at Director Liu meaningfully, and Director Liu immediately understood what she was going to do.
He nodded seriously and said, "No problem. The deputy director of this hospital and I are old classmates. I'll ask him to find someone to do the examination in a moment."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Director, when you go to see the dean, please call the police and ask them to come over."
The old lady's face turned pale when she heard this. Seeing Director Liu turning around and about to leave, she suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Director Liu's arm.
"You're not allowed to go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young nurse with an anxious face suddenly rushed in from outside.
"Who is Zhang Lai Di's family member? The child just fainted."
